Mod protocol

THIS IS NOT FINAL.. feel free to edit.
Introduction
Modprot is needed for more clean protocol extensions by eMule modders....
The main idea is to set a bit in CT_EMULE_MISCOPTIONS2 in the initial hello. If that bit is set and receive by e eMule mod that is capable of processing extensions then that mod will send the options it is cabpale of in the response. and the first cleitn will also send back the protocol extensions it is capable of.
Important:
Clients that are not capable of processing the mod protocol(like official eMule/amule) will not set the mod bit in CT_EMULE_MISCOPTIONS2 and will never receive extended protocol information.
Documentation
All mod communication is to be done over the OP_MODPROT/OP_MODPACKEDPROT, When a hello(answer) with a set mod bit is received ConnectionEstablished is to be delayed, and instead the mod info packet with the opcode OP_MODINFOPACKET is ti be sent, ConnectionEstablished is to be triggered when the mod info packet is received.
A B Hello ---> MB Set (see ModBit is set) MB Set <--- Hello Answer ConEst <--- MInfo (Mod Info) MInfo ---> ConEst (call ConnectionEstablished)
The mod info packet have to contain eEmuleTags that announces supported features:
<uint 32> tag count <emule tag 1> <emule tag 2> ... <emule tag n>
Only mod features are allowed to use that what was announces by both sides, after the capability exchange all reminding opcodes > 0x01 (0x01 is mod info packet) are allowed to be used by clients in any way they want. All further communication is not part of this specification.

backward compatibility
Modstring is still send and replied in hello packet to maintain backward compatibility. However a opcode for modstring will be defined for those who also want to move it to the mod protocol. A mod using the modbit MUST identify itself. (A mod that uses extensions but refuses to identify itslef CAN be considered a bad mod by some antileecher systems)
OPCODES
OP_MODPROT 0x57 OP_MODPACKEDPROT 0x58 OP_MODINFOPACKET 0x01
TAGS defines
Tags used must be reserved in modprot topic at emule-project.net. Source must be published withing 3 months for claiming a tag.
The range 0x01 - 0x1F is completely reserved.
Tags in the range from 0x20 - 0x7E are reserved for use full features, objections can be:
- Modder uses too many tags (If you need more than 5 you are doing something wrong probably. Note that also string tags are available that are not regulated)
- Utterly useless or unimplementable feature, no other mod will ever reuse it.
- Illegal feature
The range 0x7F-FF is open and you can take any free tag you want, only object can be using to many tags (e.g. someone claims to need a range of 0x80 till 0xAF).
